WINTER IS COMING!!! You will need to train inside. Why not give these rollers a try??? This pair of nearly new, although stored for a long time, pair of rollers which retails for almost $1000 can be yours for the low price of $499. That is a SMOKING deal. AND, not only will you get the rollers, but you will get the added $181.95 platform for FREE. And any extra thing I may have bought for replacement parts and never needed because turns out, I never really liked training indoors. And now I don't train at all. The secret truth may be that my husband HAD TO HAVE these rollers because they are easier to use. And if you want, they have front wheel bumpers or front fork stand you can buy to make these amazing rollers even more adaptable. You will never fall off these. GUARANTEED!
And if you don't believe me that they are the BEST rollers for the money, please continue reading the propaganda from none other than the TruTrainer website. I'm not lying. Obviously. They are unlike anything else!!! Verify it all on their website. And if you are convinced, please contact me at butler.sue@comcast.net or 503-806-4610
>From TruTrainerdotcom:
"TruTrainer rollers may look like regular rollers but they don���t feel like them. In fact, they are unlike any trainer you have ever ridden. The secret, aside from their extraordinary quality, is a high speed tubular flywheel contained inside the rear roller. The flywheel duplicates the cyclic resistance experienced during each pedal stroke as well as resistance to continuous acceleration. Additionally, viscous drag forces between the flywheel and roller simulate wind and rolling resistance. What does this mean to you? Plenty.
You enjoy an ultra-smooth ride with a natural ���road��� feel.
You can pedal out of the saddle in a natural manner.
You can coast for long periods (30 seconds) to stretch, adjust your shorts, or restore blood flow to critical areas.
Mental fatigue and boredom are significantly reduced; therefore you are inclined to train for longer periods of time (one elite college cyclist rode them for six hours straight last winter).
Interval training is enhanced because the flywheel requires significant energy to accelerate to racing speed.
No external load devices to leak or over heat. No electronic gizmos to fiddle with. No frills at all, really. Just pure, simple riding pleasure.
Features
Front roller adjusts to accommodate wheelbases from 37.2 inches (94.5 cm) to 43.2 inches (109.7cm) in �� inch increments.(shown right)
Unique system clamps roller shaft tightly for a stable, rattle free ride yet allows rapid adjustment with one 6MM Allen wrench.
Optimized rear roller position
Optimally spaced for stability when sprinting out of the saddle.
Rear rollers are elevated to offset the cradling of the rear wheel thus providing a nearly level ride.
Spacing can be optimized for either 700C or 650C wheels (different belt length required)
Side rails are CNC machined and powder coated 6061-T6 aluminum.
Rollers are precision drawn, and hard anodized 6063-T6 aluminum
Bearing end caps are CNC machined and anodized 6061-T6 aluminum
Side rails are protected with durable, anti-skid rubber tread.
Fasteners are stainless steel.
High quality shielded ball bearings are used through-out.
Flywheel is 2-plane, dynamically balanced for smooth, quiet operation.
